    I have a pc i built myself and ran good for 3 years and I clean and replace thermal paste regularly. A week ago I have taken apart my pc to clean my cpu cooler,case fans and gpu fans. I cleaned it spotless and temps are 40c max on full utilisation but after the clean I keep getting nvlddmkm.sys error anytime I try launching games and even sometimes at home screen. It's getting frustrating now I've updated drivers even though I haven't done any updates recently and I can't seem to fix it

  2. How to fix the "TDR_VIDEO_FAILURE" error?

    Hello!

    I have recently been encountering a BSOD with the error code TDR_VIDEO_FAILURE and the affected file nvlddmkm.sys whenever I run a videogame for less than 5 minutes (The BSOD does not appear when I am not running a videogame, though).

    I have tried the following solutions but the issue has not been resolved yet:

    • Changing advanced power settings - I have set the current power plan to Balanced and then I have changed Wireless Adapter Settings > Power Saving Mode to Maximum Power Savings.
    • Uninstalling the graphics card driver completely and reinstalling the latest version from the manufacturer's website (I have followed the method in this video )
    While it is true that my processor had a previous thermal failure and my battery has had a low voltage, I have never encountered this BSOD.

    Hi Asellia,

    Welcome to the 10forums.


    What driver versions have you tried currently for your graphics?
    If it is the newest version, 361.43, try rolling back the drivers.

    Daemon tools, Alcohol 120% and Power Archiver Pro uses SCSI Pass Through Direct (SPTD), which is a well known cause for BSOD's.
    Please remove Daemon Tools and run the SPTD pass through remover.

    1. Uninstall Daemon Tools
    2. Download the SPTD standalone installer and follow these steps:
      • Double click the executable to open it
      • Click on the button shown below

    If the button is grayed out, like in the image, there is no more SPTD installation on your system, and you can close the window

    Continuous BSODs, TDR_Video_Failure


    Hi,

    Hoping for some help. I've been getting pretty continuous BSODs with the error TDR_Video_Failure (nvlddmkm.sys). Sometimes it'll take awhile and other times I'll get them back to back.

    I've run Furmark for 30 mins on my resolution with no BSODs. Then I'll jump on WoW for 20 mins and I'll get one with the same error. Other times I won't even be near my computer and I'll get one.

    I'm running the newest graphics driver 341.81 and was getting the error on the last driver (I believe 341.70) also. I have also uninstalled the drivers multiple times with a clean install on just the driver with the same result.

    Not sure what to do

    Any help?
